Walking in Worcestershire

Hello and welcome to Worcestershire Ramblers. We have five active and friendly  groups for you to choose from (see links below), depending on where you live or where you wish to walk. 

Our area has a huge variety of walking to offer. It takes in the beautiful Malvern, Bredon, Lickey and Clent Hills, the rivers Avon and Severn and magnificent woodlands such as Wyre Forest. Several long-distance National Trails run through the county, including Monarchs Way, Severn Way, Shakespeare’s Avon Way, Wychavon Way and many others. Worcester, Evesham, and Broadway are very popular walking centres but if the tourist traps are not your thing, we have lesser-known attractions, including villages with names as long as their history – Upton Snodsbury, Flyford Flavel, and Wyre Piddle to name but a few!

Your membership is appreciated and if you require any further information  please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Area AGM 10th February 2024 

This year our Area AGM celebrated the town of Evesham on its recent "Walkers are Welcome" status gained through the hard work of our affiliate club - Evesham Rambling Club.  90 members from  across our five groups attended! Good food, great company and excellent speakers. Be sure to join us next year!

Why join us?

Walking with the Ramblers allows you to visit places you may never have seen, although they might be right on your doorstep! Seeing bluebells in the month of May can lift the mood even on a dull day. A summer sunset on the Malverns can be a magnificent sight. Dark winter days no longer feel so daunting when you set out on a frosty morning to meet up with your friends. All are great benefits of belonging to Worcestershire Ramblers!  Across our five groups, you will meet people with diverse interests – from botanists to rock and roll drummers! 

If you would like more information about our local Worcestershire groups just follow the links to their websites below. If you are interested in joining a particular walk, all available information is posted there, detailing the name of the walk leader and their contact phone number.   The walks programme is updated each week. so feel free to check back on their websites for upcoming walks.
